The Avalanches' new album Wildflower, their first since 2000 debut Since I Left You, is streaming in full a week early.
The Aussie outfit had made us wait a loooooong time for their second record, but it's here now for all to enjoy. We'd already been presented with the wacky Danny Brown/MF DOOM collab "Frankie Sinatra", "Colours", and "Subways".
Wildflower is out properly on 8 July via XL Recordings. It's 21 tracks long, and has got a bunch of special guests, including Father John Misty, Toro Y Moi, Jennifer Herrema of Royal Trux, Camp Lo, Warren Ellis of Dirty Three, and Biz Markie.
Listen to Wildflower below via Apple Music.
